AB  - This study highlights the importance of considering long-term economic and environmental sustainability in selecting locations for Organized Industrial Zones (OIZs). However, land-use decisions often neglect ecological concerns, posing significant threats to sensitive areas. The research focuses on the environmental impacts of the Kayseri Organized Industrial Zone (KOIZ) on the nearby Hürmetçi Marsh Wetland, a biodiversity-rich ecological site. Using qualitative methods like literature reviews, field observations, and PESTLE analysis, the study reveals that KOIZ activities and potential expansions jeopardize the wetland's ecological health. The PESTLE framework identifies political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental factors influencing the interaction between industrial development and ecological stability. Based on these findings, the study proposes several sustainable management strategies. These include enforcing strict environmental regulations, adopting eco-friendly industrial practices, and creating buffer zones to protect sensitive areas. Wetland restoration projects, along with sustainable water and waste management systems, are recommended to mitigate environmental damage. Continuous monitoring and adaptive research are emphasized to refine conservation strategies over time. The study also underscores the importance of local community involvement through education and awareness initiatives. A participatory approach not only strengthens community ties to the environment but also ensures broader support for preservation efforts, fostering shared responsibility for sustainable development. These measures aim to balance industrial growth with the preservation of vital ecological areas like the Hürmetçi Marsh Wetland.

N2  - Bu çalışma, Organize Sanayi Bölgeleri (OSB) için yer seçerken uzun vadeli ekonomik ve çevresel sürdürülebilirliğin dikkate alınmasının önemini vurgulamaktadır. Ancak, arazi kullanım kararları genellikle ekolojik kaygıları göz ardı ederek hassas alanlar için önemli tehditler oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma, Kayseri Organize Sanayi Bölgesi'nin (KOSB) biyolojik çeşitlilik açısından zengin bir ekolojik alan olan yakındaki Hürmetçi Sazlığı Sulak Alanı üzerindeki çevresel etkilerine odaklanmaktadır. Literatür incelemeleri, saha gözlemleri ve PESTLE analizi gibi nitel yöntemler kullanılarak çalışma, KOSB faaliyetlerinin ve potansiyel genişlemelerinin sulak alanın ekolojik sağlığını tehlikeye attığını ortaya koymaktadır. PESTLE çerçevesi, endüstriyel gelişme ile ekolojik istikrar arasındaki etkileşimi etkileyen politik, ekonomik, sosyal, teknolojik, yasal ve çevresel faktörleri belirlemektedir. Bu bulgulara dayanarak, çalışma çeşitli sürdürülebilir yönetim stratejileri önermektedir. Bunlar arasında sıkı çevre düzenlemeleri uygulamak, çevre dostu endüstriyel uygulamaları benimsemek ve hassas alanları korumak için tampon bölgeler oluşturmak yer almaktadır. Çevresel hasarı azaltmak için sulak alan restorasyon projeleri, sürdürülebilir su ve atık yönetim sistemleri ile birlikte önerilmektedir. Zamanla koruma stratejilerini geliştirmek için sürekli izleme ve uyarlanabilir araştırmalar vurgulanmaktadır. Çalışma ayrıca eğitim ve farkındalık girişimleri aracılığıyla yerel topluluk katılımının önemini vurgular. Katılımcı bir yaklaşım yalnızca toplulukların çevreyle bağlarını güçlendirmekle kalmaz, aynı zamanda koruma çabaları için daha geniş bir desteği garanti ederek sürdürülebilir kalkınma için paylaşılan sorumluluğu teşvik eder. Bu önlemler, endüstriyel büyümeyi Hürmetçi Bataklık Sulak Alanı gibi hayati ekolojik alanların korunmasıyla dengelemeyi amaçlamaktadır.
